As OK! previously reported, Kennedy Jr. suspended his presidential election campaign and joined forces with Trump. He made the decision because he claimed he “no longer believed” he had a “realistic path of electoral victory in the face of this relentless, systematic censorship and media control.”
“I cannot, in good conscience, ask my staff and volunteers to keep working their long hours, or ask my donors to keep giving when I cannot honestly tell them that I have a real path to the White House,” he said at the time. “Three great causes drove me to enter this race in the first place, primarily. These are the principal causes that persuaded me to leave the Democratic Party and run as an independent, and now to throw my support to President Trump.”
